Cherries
Cherries are my very favorite fruit ... and although life during the Covid-19 pandemic is not a bowl full of cherries at the moment, it's still a pleasure to enjoy the season!

Happy rocks
There is a small group of families that paints rocks and puts them around the neighborhood. The designs vary a lot but they always make me smile when I'm out for a walk.
Full bloom
Our crabapple is in full bloom. We still have many daffodils, and the tulips are starting to bloom. First tulips! And a new Spring bouquet in the kitchen.

I'm lucky to work with such an amazing team at work. Every once in awhile I get a thank you from someone on the team, and I feel so blessed that the appreciation is reciprocated. This unexpected little gift and the accompanying note left me feel very lucky indeed.
